8. Exporting Configurations in DME Designer Format
Y-S3 can automatically generate an output system configuration for all placed speaker arrays and save them in DME
Designer Project format.
Saving a Configuration in DME Designer Project File (.daf) Format
To save the current configuration in DME Designer Project File (.daf) format, click on the tool bar, or select [DME
Configuration (D)… (*.daf)] from [Export (E)] in the [File (F)] menu and enter a file name. You may open a saved .daf file
in DME Designer. The .daf file includes the necessary number of processors and configurations for the placed speaker
arrays.
Saving a Configuration in DME Designer Device Configuration (.ddf) Format
You can also export the DME's internal configuration as Device Configuration file. To save the configuration in Device
Configuration (.ddf) format, select [DME Configuration(M)… (*.ddf)] from [Export (E)] in the [File (F)] menu, and enter a
file name. To load a file into DME Designer, start DME Designer, and select [Create New Group] from [Import Device
Configuration] in the [File] menu on the main screen. You may also import the configuration to the DME already in the
project file that has been made with DME Designer. Select the processor from [Import Device Configuration] in the
[File] menu of DME Designer, and load the saved file.
Saving a Configuration in DME Designer Library File (.cel) Format
You may save the configuration of the output component of each placed speaker array in Library File (.cel) format.
Select [DME Configuration(E)… (*.cel)] from [Export (E)] in the [File (F)] menu, and specify the destination folder. In the
specified folder, a folder is created for each speaker array, and the library file is saved in each array folder. The file
name is (the name of the speaker array)_(the component name).cel or (the name of the speaker array)_(the name of
the speaker)_(the component name).cel. If a file with the same name already exists, the file will be overwritten. If
necessary, create a new folder. The component name corresponds to the DME Designer configuration, which is delay
(Delay-Short 1 Output), peq (PEQ-Mono 8 Band), or SPProc (Speaker Processor).
The saved library file can be opened in DME Designer and Amp Editor. For details on how to open library files, see the
respective software owner's manual. To use a Speaker Processor library file that has been saved using Y-S3 in Amp
Editor, first convert the file to a TXn library file (*.ce2) using the Speaker Processor Library Converter. When the library
file is recalled in Amp Editor, the data in the file will be changed to limiter values that match the TXn gain structure. A
1-way library file can be loaded without having to first convert it into a TXn library file (*.ce2). For details about Speaker
Processor Library Converter, see the Amp Editor owner's manual. Amp Editor does not support the loading of delay
library files.
